Chapter 350: Moving to Luyang
Xu Chu, the word Zhongkang, is more than eight feet long, with a large waist and ten girths, a majestic appearance, a peerless bravery, alias Tiger Idiot, Cao Cao's guard general, and he is also a leader in the Three Kingdoms in terms of force, no less than Lu Bu and Dian Wei, and I am afraid that no one can take anyone within a hundred moves.
The defenders were already frightened, if it weren't for Dong Cheng holding the sword behind, I am afraid they would have to open the city and surrender, and now Xu Chu has to come, the tiger's eyes are round, the majesty is majestic, the big axe stands beside him, and he shouts violently: "Kill the fearful of war, kill me." With that, he raised his axe and slashed down one of the enemies who climbed up, and the enemy was instantly cut in half, and blood sprayed everywhere.
The defenders saw that Xu Chu was brave and martial, and their mood was a little calm, in their concept, this person could split people in half, and his force was definitely not lower than Lu Bu, and they quickly got up in spirit, and under the organization of the officer, they hurriedly continued to defend the city.
After all, the materials for defending the city in Luoyang are insufficient, just rebuilt for two years, the city can be built is not good, the number of people in the city is not much, the savings of fire oil are very small, and there are not many spare wood and stones, yesterday fought for a day, plus this morning has consumed a lot, there is not much left, and the oil is even more exhausted, and it is impossible to stop the enemy's crazy climbing.
Standing under the city, Lu Bu saw that the defenders instantly became stubborn, and the people who had already attacked were quickly killed, dead and wounded, and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, follow me to the city." ”
"Lu Bu is up, Lu Bu is here."
Listening to the panicked shouts of the defenders, Xu Chu was very happy in his heart, he had long heard that Lu Bu was known as an invincible brave general in the world, he had already wanted to give it a try, and this time he finally found an opportunity.
Watching Lu Bu climb up the ladder, the defenders threw down the few remaining rolling logs and gravels without their lives. I hope to crush him to death, but how can Lu Bu be hindered by this. The halberd in one hand kept swinging, and the pieces of radium that fell down were shattered. Sections of rolling logs were also split in half and fell to the sides.
After a few steps, Lu Bu waited on the city wall, Xu Chu did not take advantage of it, and when he breathed a sigh of relief, the big axe and the wind immediately added to his body.
Lu Bu was shocked, his military general felt that it was the opponent's full force blow, and immediately raised his halberd and used all his strength to stop it, shouting: "Who are you, dare to sneak attack me Lu Fengxian." ”
"I am Xu Chu, the general under the account of Duke Cao, and the three surnamed slaves watch the axe."
What Lu Bu couldn't hear the most was the four words of the three surnames and slaves. This is already the biggest stain in his life, and whoever fights with him will shout out, and every time he hears it, it is like a knife cutting his heart.
"Ahhhh Damn, it's really hateful, you even underestimate me Lu Fengxian, I will definitely kill you. ”
The two quickly fought together, with equal force, you come and go, and the others can't intervene at all. But whoever came near would surely be killed or wounded by the hangers, and no one dared to come near, but turned to continue to defend the city.
Cao Xing and the others were very different from Lu Bu, and Lu Bu could forcibly climb the city wall in the chaos of rocks and trees. Cao Xing and a few people can't do it, they can only go up little by little, but the ladder is durable. How can it withstand multiple blows, just up not too high. The ladders were cut in half, and they had no choice but to jump down. Looking for other ladders and climbing.
On the city wall, the battle between Lu Bu and Xu Chu became more and more intense, the two of them who were evenly matched, weapons collided, sparks splashed everywhere, and Cao Cao and Dong Cheng's necks were sore when they stood behind and watched.
The more Lu Bu fought, the more frightened he became, Lin Sen had Zhao Yun and Dian Wei under his account, which was enough to fight against him, and there was such a person named Xu Chu under Cao Cao's account, and he couldn't take him for a while, there were too many brave people in the world, and it was really not to be underestimated.
Repelled an enemy army to the morale of the defenders, feeling that Lu Bu was nothing, his own side had enough to fight against Lu Bu, one by one desperately to fight against the enemy, the defense of the city was short of materials, they desperately was shot by the bow and arrow to knock down the ladder, the small number of rolling wood and radium stone vigorously thrown down.
Gradually, the sky was getting later and later, and the momentum of Lu Bu's army attacking the city was getting weaker and weaker, and Cao Xing and the others saw that they were really unable to climb the city, so they retreated, urging the army to continue climbing, but the generals could not take the lead, and the soldiers who were willing to work hard, they didn't like to continue fighting, and they didn't have any money, so the pressure on the defenders was getting less and less.
But Lu Bu is still fighting on the city wall, a hundred moves have passed, the two of them are sweating profusely, Lu Bu has only slightly occupied a little of the peak, but it is impossible to win quickly, Lu Bu took the time to look around, and found that many defenders had stopped and stood aside, watching him and Xu Chu fight, and the highlights would clap and shout, and the shouting and killing sound was getting smaller and smaller, and the soldiers participating in the defense of the city were getting fewer and fewer, which was obviously a weak successor.
In this way, even if he killed Xu Chu in front of him, he couldn't capture this Luoyang City when he was tired, the more he thought about it, the more he didn't want to continue fighting, after thinking about it, he attacked again and again, forced Xu Chu to take two steps back, and then ran to the city wall, and he didn't see the height, he jumped down directly, and rolled after grounding, unloaded the power, and landed safely.
"What are you doing, why don't you organize a siege, why!"
As soon as Lu Bu landed and returned, he found Cao Xing and a few people who were furious, their eyes were wide open, and they almost used the halberd in their hands to cut people, and no one dared to raise their heads to speak, only Cao Xing, who had the best relationship with Lu Bu, whispered: "We are not as brave as the general, and we have never been able to climb the city wall, and the soldiers are also unwilling, so we have not attacked the city wall, and I ask the general to forgive us." ”
"Waste, it's all a bunch of waste, what use do you want, what do you say you want."
Seeing that Lu Bu was really angry, Cao Xing and the others hurriedly knelt on the ground, and shouted repeatedly: "The general forgives the sin, the general forgives the sin......"
Seeing this, Chen Gong hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The general dissipated his anger, and saw it in the rear, Cao Xing, they didn't want to support the general, they were really weak, and the soldiers' fighting spirit was not high, and a few of them shouted that their throats were still to no avail, and I asked the general to be merciful and forgive them." ”
Lu Bu snorted coldly and said, "I will spare you for the sake of seeing the public platform today, and if you dare to fight again next time, you will not be spared." ”
"General Xie Kaien, Mr. Xie Gongtai, General Xie ......"
It was too late to fight again, and the main thing was that Luoyang could not be captured today, and the army must be withdrawn to the west tomorrow, retreating to Hangu and Chang'an, from now on, the court will no longer belong to him, fortunately, the beautiful concubine and the little girl have been with the army and have not fallen into Luoyang.
Finally succeeded in holding Luoyang again, Dong Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, it was really not easy to get up this day, and he was attacked by Lu Bu on the city wall, if there was no Cao Cao's general Xu Chu on the top, Luoyang would definitely fall today.
"Your Majesty, thanks to General Cao Mengde's presence today, otherwise Luoyang will be captured by the traitor Lu Bu, Cao Mengde is really a humerus that Your Majesty can rely on."
After the city wall, Dong Cheng immediately took Cao Cao and Dong Zhao to the palace, and after everyone saluted, Dong Cheng showed the emperor for Cao Cao, and Cao Cao hurriedly said: "This is what your subordinates should do, thanks to Your Majesty's bravery, and the soldiers use their lives." ”
Emperor Liu Xie praised Cao Cao vigorously, Cao Cao and several people retreated, and came to Dong Cheng's house together, Dong Cheng's banquet has also been prepared, the three of them sat in the same hall, drank a glass of wine, Dong Zhaoxian said: "Lord Sima, although Lu Fengxian was repelled today, but the heavy grain and grass in the city has been seriously insufficient, and it may be difficult to hold it tomorrow." ”
Cao Cao also sighed on the side: "Lu Fengxian is really brave, today he was able to kill my 100,000 Yanzhou elites, if the city is really short of food and grass, it is difficult to defend for a long time, please ask Lord Sima to discuss it early." ”
Dong Cheng was also very flustered when they said this, and hurriedly asked, "What do you two think?" ”
Cao Cao and Dong Zhao had already discussed, and Dong Zhao hurriedly said: "The only way to do this is to move the saint and go to Luyang at night." ”
"Lu Yang?"
Dong Zhao said: "Yes, Luyang is closer to Yanzhou, and it is easier to transport it in a different way, so there is no worry about a serious shortage of food, and secondly, General Cao's rear army should also travel not far to Luyang, so that it can protect the safety of the holy car, and when Lu Feng is defeated, it is necessary to move the holy car back to Luoyang." ”
Dong Cheng looked at Cao Cao and asked, "How many soldiers and horses does Meng De have?" ”
Cao Cao replied: "The rear army is 300,000, according to the time calculation, and now it is going to the vicinity of Luyang." ”
Dong Cheng had just accepted Cao Cao's heavy gift in the morning, and naturally his heart was towards Cao Cao, seeing that there was no way at the moment, Cao Cao was also very respectful to the Son of Heaven, and did not have any arrogance, and immediately said: "Okay, after the banquet, this official will enter the palace to persuade His Majesty to move to Luyang, you must do a good job in relevant matters, and there can be no mistakes." ”
Cao Cao and Dong Zhao glanced at each other, understood what the other party was thinking, and the matter was done.
"The subordinate obeys." ……
